You asked
Could you please provide the most recent information (presumably the 2021 census) regarding the population of Mongolian persons residing in the UK.
We said
Thank you for your freedom of information request.
Although the UK censuses historically take place on the same day they are run separately by each National Statistics Office (Northern Ireland Statistics & Research Agency (NISRA), National Records of Scotland (NRS), and the Office for National Statistics (ONS) for both England and Wales.
